A new season of “American Grit” returns to FOX this summer. John Cena and a brand-new group of mentors, known as “The Cadre,” will live alongside 17 fierce competitors at Camp Grit, where the drama quickly heats up.
They will take these competitors under their wings as they lead them through all-new team and individual challenges where one individual will win a quarter of a million dollars.
This season, The Cadre includes John Burk, an Infantry Drill Sergeant with the U.S. Army; Riki Long, a U.S. Marine; Chloe Mondesir, an Ammunition Technician with the U.S. Marines; and Grady Powell, a Green Berets Commander. The Cadre will build their teams and leverage their very different mentoring styles to prove they have what it takes to help their competitors find their grit.
Each week, the competitors will undergo a series of team challenges designed to test their ability to work together, strategize and lead. The winning team is safe from elimination but the losers’ fate is in the hands of the winning Cadre leader who selects three rival competitors to face off in a final test of endurance.
Check out the 17 competitors below:
